I’ve seen this guys channel. I find anyone that does “poverty tourism” to be pretty loathsome. I’d like to know where he’s from that makes him so much fucking better than everyone.

Even his more “normal-ish” videos tend to be a little cringe with a bit of racism and classism in his humor.

If anyone likes that kind of video talking about different places without nearly as much cringe, I would recommend the YT channel: The World According to Briggs

He is still definitely an older gentleman who makes older gentleman gaffes occasionally, but at the very least he isn’t trying to be offensive on purpose

Briggs is also biased just like Nick here according to u/GreySquirrelUK

As I said, there are some things that he says that are definitely a little iffy too, but at least in the videos I’ve watched of him, it seemed to come down mostly to poor phrasing, unlike the more blatant ill-intent of the Nick guy.

That said, I am open to being wrong if there is an example shown to me
